Well, you just added a large layer between your database server and a real
disk. A degradation of 10% seems pretty normal and expected. Around 20%
and I believe there's probably room for painstaking IO optimization work.
But unless you have the ability to read/write from native disk, I don't
think you can ever expect to go back to native disk performance.
